Scope: Right now, editing a blacklist can only be done via Analytics or via Merchant Services, this process is unfortunately slow and time consuming. Merchants needing to edit a huge number of transactions, or needing immediate control, including confirmation of the update done, requested this new Paygate feature. Computop will now be offering the possibility to edit a Blacklist via server-to-server.
Integration: A merchant should send a request to blacklist.aspx with usual parameters like MerchantID, Data and Length. In encrypted data, there must be a parameter EventToken for Insert, Update or Delete and a parameter BlackListInfo with all the information about the blacklist item. The value of BlackListInfo is a JSON-String. The Paygate first checks, if the merchant has the right to send such a request. Depending on the request result, it creates a BlackListInfo object and can perform the action insert, update or delete in the blacklist database. The next step is a response from the Paygate to the merchant. There will be a parameter Status, which can have the value OK or FAILED. In case of OK there will also be a parameter BlackListInfo which delivers all blacklist information as JSON-String. In case of FAILED there will be a parameter Description, which gives an indication why the request failed.
In order to block a card on several MerchantIDs at the same time, but without having to send a request for each MerchantID, it is possible to define a Master-MerchantID and various Sub-MerchantIDs. Then it is sufficient to send a request to the Master-MerchantID with the necessary data and the block will then also apply to all Sub-MerchantIDs at the same time.
If you are interested in this special function, please contact our Merchant Support so that the necessary configuration can be discussed and established.
